How old is too old?

I just found a few sealed bags of green tea from Den's that I had forgotten about... they are a few years old now. Since they have never been opened, is there any chance that they are still worth brewing and drinking? Or should I just toss them in the trash and move on

Open it up at least, try a pot, if it's no good... you have one other option... pour some of the tea on a pan, turn on the fire, and roast it just until you can start to smell the aroma or see the leaves turning brown. Get them off the heat immediately, and you'll have home made Houjicha!

I have to admit, I've only done it once myself, and that wasn't for old tea, but I've heard that's a good way to make use of it. Let us know if it was any good.
